Further afield, you can venture to the lively seaside town of Scarborough and relish in the sweeping shoreside, or if you have any animal lovers in the group, SEA LIFE Scarborough, a popular aquarium is situated right on the shoreside, and the Filey Bird and Animal Park rests just a short and scenic drive from here.

All the facilities were very good indeed and there was plenty of space for 4 couples to stay in. We spent a lot of the time socialising in the spacious kitchen diner. Being so close to the centre of Whitby was a big bonus. Parking was a little tricky - as it is all around Whitby and you need to check that you have enough permits for the amount of cars you bring.

Trillo is perfectly placed for everything Whitby and has the benefit of a garden and hot tub which is very rare in Whitby. The kitchen was well equipped, the bedrooms beautiful and the welcome pack much appreciated. Iâd also like to thank Izzy and Edwin for their super fast responses to correspondence and for posting my dress back when Iâd stupidly left it there and they are incredibly friendly and approachable. The kitchen would benefit from a mop with which Iâd have been able to clean the floor during our stay. We will definitely stay here again and loved every minute!! Thank you

Four really good size (and quirky) bedrooms, all with good sized TVâs. Two large sitting rooms, first and second floor with large TVâs. Very large family bathroom with roll top bath and good shower on third floor, roll top bath on fourth floor with sink a toilet. Downstairs cloakroom. Extremely large kitchen with everything you need provided, including bottle of milk, butter and six eggs. Well maintained hot tub. All together a really lovely stay, being close to the train station and shops. My only negative comment would be that the small garden and furniture need some TLC. Parking wasnât too bad as managed to get both cars parked up outside, with the scratch cards in the window, for the duration of our stay. There is a park at the top of Newton Street where you can take your furry friends for a walk but it is very steep and dogs must be on a lead. The other park, where dogs are not allowed, is absolutely stunning and worth a walk round. All together a really lovely stay and highly recommended. Great communication with the owners too.
